    We absolutely loved the crab dip they had for a Father’s Day special appetizer! My son enjoyed his filet that was cooked to perfection and my spouse and I loved our crab cake entrees! It’s our favorite local spot that we recommend to everyone!

    Went with a group of 7 for the first time. I believe 2 in our group had been there before and recommended a lot of the dishes on the menu. We had Chloe who was phenomenal and made sure we received everything to our liking. I had the ribs with fried mac and cheese and black eyed peas. Great portion. I loved that the ribs fell off the bone. Had it for leftovers today and wow. Only regret is that I didn’t leave room for dessert. Also, had the opportunity to meet both of the owners. Adding this to our list of places to eat, can’t wait to return.

    Food was delicious, had a chill brunch vibe. Our server Natalie was good, even helped us with an odd request. Will definitely eat here again when we’re in town.

    Small restaurant with delicious food and great service! At my table of 4 adults, we enjoyed spareribs, chicken and waffles and crab cakes. All dishes were wonderful. His was my first time eating Maryland crab cakes and they were delicious! One person at my table said that they were the best that she has ever had. This was a great place to eat, chosen from great reviews discovered on line- DJ

    The food is very good here. My husband had the sun dried tomato pasta which was delicious and we had the fried shrimp egg roll which was tasty. We shared the key lime pie desert -- it was delicious and more than enough for two. Low score on ambience because general upkeep of the dining area was not great. The floor was sticky when we walked to our table and the floor is damaged and has not been fixed in the center of the dining area. Service was good.
